tary Bayard's compact with the British Minister
in April, 1885, rs illegal and scandaious. II
they consider the language too strong they have
forgotten the vigorous dcnunciations Of Mr. Spot
ford, an eminent Democrat Of Massachusetts,. who
a year ago declared that the Sccctary's conduct
deserved impeachment The fisheries clauses had
been abrogated by action of Congress and Presi-
dent Arthur's proclamation. The Secretary had
the constitutional right 10 negotiate new Treaty,
hut he had no legal power TO continue in force
the clauses Of tho Treaty of Washington which
had been formally abrogated. That was an
illegal procedure: and the fact that the British
Minister was allowed 70 dictate the Presidents
recommendation TO Congress for n joint commission
was nothing less than public scandal.

The new holiday of Labor had its first OBJ
servance under the most favorable conditions.
Ii its success was dependent upon the weather
it had that con0ition in amplest perfection.
Business was largely given up. and even those
houses which opened in the morning were in
many cases glad to close at midday for lack of
customers. The parade was of course the car
dinal feature of the day. and it was genuine
and striking success Careful estimates show
some twenty thousand men in line, as orderly
as body of soldiers and marching as steadily
as veterans. Labor Day has justified itself
already.

One of the old stand bys in the fraud
line is the alleged newspaper issued Jan.
A. 1900, the inside of which is draped in
mourning because of the death of Gen.
Washington, which occurred Dec, II, 1888.
The paper was The Ulster County Ga
zctte, published at Kingston, n. Y, and
was of the issue of Jan. 4, 1900. There
are 10000 alleged copies of that alleged
newspaper carefully preserved in the
homes of New York and New England to-
day, without any doubt. But the owners
of these sheets do not know the fact.
There was an Ulster County Gazette at
the time of Wushington's DEATH and it
very naturally printed something about
that event. Probably not one copy Of
that paper is in existence, but every week
somebody pops up in Maine or Vermont,
or Iowa or Minnesota, and says he has u
copy Of that Gazette.
The simple truth about the matter is
that some twenty-five or twenty-six years
ago parties who were exhibiting an ancient
printing press published thousands upon
thousands of this Ulster County Gazette,
because it was easy of reproduction, and
everybody WHO went to an agricultural
show that year got an Ulster County Ca
zettc dated 1900 and printed the Cay Of
the show. These are the bogus papers that
ere continually coming to the front as
genuine relic. Why, more of them are
in existence tan there We're genuine cop
les of The Ulster County Gazette printed
-l}oston Herald.

The first thing for boy or girl to re-
member in considering war is that sol
dcrs must eat II is generally supposed
that the most important duty of II soldier

The control Of the railroads is the object
OF every great campaign i'll modern war.
Whoever holds the railroads can move
troops and ammunition and food to the
important point more quickly than the
enemy. And everything depends upon
being stronger than your enemy at the
important point. One man is nearly rs
good rs another man, at least on the
average. Ten thousand men Of one nation
are ncarly sure to he worth 10000 of an
other; and certainly in the great American
war where all the men were of the same
nation. there was little difference in the
fighting quality Of the opposing forces.
one side had more dash, the other more
endurance; one perhaps went into battle
more fuliously, the other | should say
held ont more stubbornly; but III the end
the men on one side were about as good
for lighting purposes rs those on the
other Whoever had most men, there

must he equipped and fed. To have more
men than you can feed is worse than not
having enough. st, Nicholas.
